Why office signage matters

office signage Why office signage matters

Never underestimate the value of good office signage.

When fitting out a new office space, it’s something that often gets overlooked – particularly as most branding and marketing is now done via digital channels. But physical signs should still be a big part of your branding efforts and they can be just as important as your website and social media pages. Here we take a closer look at why.

3 benefits of high-quality office signs

1. Professionalism

Think of it from your client’s perspective. When they come to your office for a meeting, what do they want to see?

Most will be looking for some kind of visual reinforcement that you’re a strong and reputable brand. Yes, it’s a cliché – but first impressions really do count. Your office sets the stage for how clients will perceive your business overall. And this initial split-second assessment could make all the difference, potentially influencing their decision about whether to work with your business or not.

Office signage can also help to reassure clients that your business is well-established. It shows that you’re settled in and dependable. Whereas a sparsely furnished office space – with poor-quality or zero signage – can give the impression that you’re a start-up, with very little experience.

2. Consistency

Clients want to know that your brand is consistent, and physical signage can certainly help with that.

If designed well, office signs can echo the high-quality branding found on your digital channels. Whether you’re a traditional business with strong principles, or a modern and dynamic company, your signage should reflect this and showcase exactly who you are – including your goals, values, and culture. It’s all about showing clients that you’re fully committed and proud of what you have to offer.

3. Staff motivation

Not only can good business signage have a positive impact on client perceptions, it can have a positive impact on your employees too. In fact, strong branding in an office setting – including the use of signs – has been shown to increase loyalty amongst staff and boost productivity levels.

This is particularly true if the signs are bespoke and incorporate the brand colours and logo. Why? Because it creates a sense of belonging. Bespoke office signs make your employees feel like a true part of the company’s culture. What’s more, they can help to set the right mood and atmosphere, giving staff a comfortable and creative space in which to do their best work.
